Got Religious Literacy by Prothero
Not sure how I'm feeling about this one. The main premise is that nearly everything that has ever happened has happened the way it happened because of religion. I don't disagree, but I think I differ with the author - he seems to think events happened for the sake of religion. I think, depending on the event, it is quite often that humans used religion for the sake of gain. Maybe that is too cynical.
What are your reading plans for August?

I have to say that Bleak House is one of my less favorite Dickens novels.

Interesting. It sounds like we have diametrically opposed views.

Five (though the third is so long it's split in two in the paperbacks). And please do!

As do I. It's the only one of his books I don't have any reservations about.
